Commander un certificat de signature de code

New private key storage requirements

On May 30, 2023, DigiCert updated our private key storage requirements for code signing certificate private keys, per industry standards. All private keys for code signing certificates must be stored on hardware certified as FIPS 140 Level 2, Common Criteria EAL 4+, or equivalent.

For more information, see our knowledge base articles:

Important

L'industrie passe à une clé RSA 3072 bits minimum pour les certificats de signature de code

Pour se conformer aux changements de l'industrie, DigiCert a apporté les modifications suivantes à son processus de certificat de signature de code :

  • N'émet que des certificats de signature de code avec une clé RSA 3072 bits ou supérieure*.

  • Utilise de nouvelles AC intermédiaires et des certificats racine pour émettre nos certificats de signature de code et de signature de code EV : RSA et ECC

En savoir plus sur le passage aux certificats de signature de code à clé de 3072 bits..

  • Prévalider une organisation

    Assurez-vous que l'organisation à laquelle vous souhaitez associer votre certificat de signature de code (CS) a été prévalidée pour la validation d'organisation CS. Dans le menu déroulant Organization (Organisation), nous ne répertorions que les organisations qui ont obtenu la validation d'organisation CS. Consultez la page Soumettre une organisation à prévalidation.

  • Prévalider un domaine

    En ajoutant une adresse e-mail comme objet d'un certificat de signature de code, l'adresse e-mail doit inclure un domaine validé. Par exemple, si vous souhaitez ajouter john.doe@exemple.com, vous devez prévalider exemple.com. Consultez la page Pré-validation de domaine. Seuls les domaines pré-validés apparaissent sur le formulaire de commande.

    For example, if you want to add john.doe@example.com, make sure example.com has been validated. See Domain prevalidation.

    Adding an email address is optional. Depending on how your account was set up, you may be unable to add an email address to your Code Signing certificate.

  • Générez une CSR

    Si vous allez utiliser votre certificat de signature de code (CS) avec la plate-forme Sun Java, vous devez soumettre une demande de signature de certificat (CSR) avec votre commande. Vous pouvez toutefois inclure une CSR avec votre commande, pour n’importe quelle plate-forme.

    Pour rester sécurisés, les certificats doivent utiliser une clé d'une taille minimale RSA 3072 bits ou ECC P-256 bits. Pour accéder aux instructions relatives à la création d'une CSR pour différents systèmes d'exploitation et plates-formes, consultez la page Créer une CSR pour une demande de certificat de signature de code.

Commander un certificat CS

  1. In the left main menu, hover over Request a Certificate , then under Code Signing Certificates, select Code Signing.

  2. On the Request a Code Signing Certificate page, in the For dropdown, select the division to manage the certificate.

    The For dropdown only appears if your account uses Divisions.

Paramètres du certificat

  1. Période de validité

    Sélectionnez une période de validité pour le certificat : 1 an, 2 ans, ou 3 ans.

    If needed, you can customize the expiration date or certificate length. However, you cannot exceed the 39-month maximum code signing certificate validity.

  2. Hachage de la signature

    To set up automatic renewal for this code signing order, check Auto-renew order 30 days before expiration.

    À moins que vous ayez des raisons particulières de choisir un hachage de signature différent, DigiCert recommande d’utiliser le hachage de signature par défaut : SHA-256.

    Astuce

    If your certificate still has validity remaining before it expires, DigiCert adds the remaining validity to your new certificate (up to 39 months).

Organization

  1. Add an organization.

    Select Add organization

    You can add an existing organization from your account or a new organization. The new organization will be added to your account. However, DigiCert must complete the code signing validation for the selected or new organization before we can issue your certificate.

Order Settings

  • Provisioning options

    The provisioning method refers to where you will store the private key and certificate. For the security of your Code Signing certificate, the certificate must be installed on and used from an approved device.

    Select the storage device for your Code Signing certificate and its' private key.

    • DigiCert-provided hardware token

      DigiCert ships a secure token with instructions for installing the certificate on your token. So you can start signing code.

      Then, under Shipping address, add your shipping information: your name and the address where you want us to send the hardware token.

    • Use existing token

      After DigiCert issues your code signing certificate, install the certificate on your token.

      In the Platform dropdown, select the type of hardware token on which you plan to install your Code Signing certificate:

      • SafeNet eToken 5110 CC (940) for RSA 4096-bit and ECC P-256-bit or higher key certificates.

      • SafeNet eToken 5110 FIPS for ECC P-256 and P-384-bit key certificates.

      • SafeNet eToken 5110+ FIPS for RSA 4096-bit and ECC P-256-bit or higher key certificates.

      • SafeNet eToken 5110+ CC (940B) for ECC P-256-bit key certificates.

      Important

      You must have a FIPS 140-2 Level 2 or Common Criteria EAL4+ compliant device. See Currently Supported eTokens. You cannot install the certificate on any device not on the list.

      Need an approved token?

      Please select DigiCert-provided hardware token to have a token shipped to you. If you have questions, please contact DigiCert Support.

    • Install on HSM

      After DigiCert issues your code signing certificate, install it on the HSM where you generated the private key and CSR.

      Select Yes under Was the private key generated by a Common Criteria EAL4+ standard or FIPS 140-2 level 2 HSM?

      Note that we will send the certificate requestor an agreement email. This email is to ensure that a private key is stored on an HSM that is certified as FIPS 140 Level 2, Common Criteria EAL 4+, or equivalent. DigiCert will only issue the certificate after the requester agrees to the private key protection requirement.

      Important

      You must have a FIPS 140 Level 2, Common Criteria EAL 4+, or equivalent hardware security module (HSM) that supports at least 3072-bit keys.

      Don't have a compatible HSM?

      Please select a different provisioning method. If you have any questions, please contact DigiCert Support.

    • DigiCert KeyLocker (Cloud HSM)

      KeyLocker is an automated cloud storage service where you can store your private key and code signing certificate. Access them anytime from anywhere to sign your code. Learn more.

      DigiCert also offers Software Trust Manager, an enterprise-level code signing solution. Contact your account representative to determine if your organization could benefit from Software Trust Manager. Learn more.

Additional certificate options

The information below is optional. None of it is required to issue your certificate.

  1. Unité organisationnelle

    Enter the organization unit (OU) with which you want to associate the certificate and signatures. If you include an OU in your order, DigiCert must validate the OU before we can issue your certificate with the OU field in it.
